Wah Lambi Khamoshi is the Hindi translation of 1990 Sahitya Akademi Award-winning novel That Long Silence. This is in effect, a slow, cruel self-revelation. The novel traces the life of narrator Jaya Kulkarni who is married to Mohan and is mother of two children. The novel exposes threadbare, the tense realities of the average Indian family’s architecture. Wah Lambi Khamoshi crawls in a very slow present while shuttling to span a long, complex past of multiple family ties, giving it an annoying sense of unmoving station – the narrative flow frozen. It is a personal redemption to a battle already lost.

The novel was published in three parts in Vichitra magazine. In first two parts it was called Teen Peedhiyan (Three Generations) and in the third it was named as Yogayog. One more jewel from one of the greatest writer from India.
